We have also literally <\/em>come a long way, moving the\u00a0company from\u00a0\u00a0South Africa back to the UK in 2004. So whilst we celebrated our first booking in a beach-front bar in Camps Bay, we will be toasting our fifth anniversary in a cosy pub in Weybridge (just outside London).\u00a0 At least it is not raining at the moment…although it probably won’t be long before the next downpour!<\/p>\n
